Since most of the biomes look about the same in one way or another (deserts and mushroom biome exception) i came up with an idea to add veriety and too fill up boring oceans.....
MAJESTIC ISLANDS
FACTS:
Only spawns in ocean
uncommon to find, but at least 1 per map. As rare as villages are i suppose.
Inspired by asian terrain
medium to big in size
wont be called Majestic Islands if implented into game
WHAT YOU CAN FIND:
Hills-The hills are raggedy and often fill the landscape. They are useually the size of hills you would find anywere else.
Mountains-Every so often, you will come across a huge mountain. Not just one, but a chain. The mountains reach far higher than the ones in normal biomes.
Trees-Every part of the biome has trees. Some oak, others flower blossoms. I'll come back to that.
Water falls-Uncommon, but you can find a water falls dropping from the extreme hights of the majestic mountains. Not normal water falls, a bit bigger/wider water falls. They are beautiful to look at.
Lakes-Lakes are very common in this beautiful biome. Often made from the huge water falls. Can be pretty big.
Dirt-Yes, this biome is made up of dirt like most, but there is also stone that sticks out of the ground sometimes (mostly on mountains.)
Suger Cane-Suger cane is found by almost every water source in the majestic island biome.
Mobs-Just because this biome is cooler than others doesnt mean that mobs cant spawn!
Fog-The majestic biome is naturally foggy, its not unbearable or anything but its enough to add a majestic feel. So basically the render setting will naturaly be set to low.
FLOWER BLOSSOMS:
Trees that are only found in the majestic islands. The size of oak trees with lavender colored leaves. The wood and wooden planks are brown with a pinkish tint. While not uncommon, there are still more oak trees in this biome than flower blossoms. (Except on the mountains.) Also drop lavender colored flowers that can be used as dye and decoration, from time to time.
Flower blossoms will drop cherries from time to time (like oak trees and apples.) They can be consumed, and will restore 1/2 food points. But they have an even bigger meaning....
WHAT YOU CANT FIND:
Rivers
Pumpkins
Villages
Temples
Witch huts
MONK MONASTERIES:
Monk monasteries are a uncommon structure (like villages) found only on the top of the mountains. There are stone stairs that lead to the top of the monasteries, and there are 6 monks per monasterie
Its made up of two structures:
The meditaiton platform-made up of cobblestone.All it is, is a square were the monks meditate from day till night when the mobs come out.
The resting area-a small house made out of wooden planks. Were the monks go at night. Also a chest full with items (50% of finding.)
MONKS:
Monks were a red robes and unlike villagers dont were a hat (or whatever it is villagers wear.) They have shaved heads, but still have the big noses like villagers.
Like villagers, you can trade with monks. Except monks dont trade with emeralds, they use food. And the rarer the food (pumpkins, potatos, carrots, ect) the better the items.
Things monks sell:
weapons
leather armor
most food
dyes
emeralds
lizerd skin (i'll get to it.)
Also, monks love fire works. If you light a fire work next to some monks, they will go berserk. And will drop one free item per firework (better the firework, better the item.
SNAP DRAGONS:
A snap dragon is a kind of flower only found on mountains. Its dark red and not very rare.
When you collect a snap dragons, you can use them to make a new potion: potion of the dragon.
When the potion is consumed, you take no fire damage and all your weapons deal 100% fire damage.
Anything that touches you or your armour will burn too.
This all last 1 minute and 30 secounds.
WHY SHOULD THIS BE ADDED?
It will be somthing completly new to minecraft, wouldent be awesome to make a house all the way on top of the majestic mountains, next to a water fall?
It will make minecraft slightly more intresting, and best of all, improve those boring old oceans.
ARTWORK:
monk monasterie (sorry no monks or cherry blossoms yet, and sorry you cant see any terrain.)
REMEMBER TO VOTE
IT LOOKS LIKE PEOPLE WANT MORE MOBS. PLEASE SEND REQUEST THAT FIT THE THREAD.
I like it. But it's a bit of a tall order all at once and it doesn't improve oceans so much as make cooler-looking islands. I would say skip on the new items for now and just request [some] islands to have those traits (which could theoretically happen in current Minecraft with enough luck).

Yea this is alot of stuff. But for the majestic feel. Its for the better good.
You cant find any real water falls, big mountains, or flower blossoms in the game, so theoretically, you cant find this.
Wel the suggestgion is good but a bit unclear, you should probably make it less wall of text like, maybe add some images. Also it has a lot of unique terrain fetures which could make this bime basicly another jungle biome.
I like ocean diversity ideas, and it would be cool to venture away from shore to come upon an arcipelago with monks, monasteries, and other biome-unique features. Would give us more of a reason to explore oceans, too.

This may in fact improve oceans slightly.
And the biome itself seems spectacular, it makes me think im in the heart of ancient china or somthing.
I think it would be beautiful. One of the best biome ideas i have seen in awhile.
But the way i see it, its a mysterious island. Like from books you read and movies you watch.
Not all island have all tropical island features. Look at Britain, Austrillia, look at Japan.
Just because its an island doesent mean i cant be original. Besides, its not like there arnt islands like this in real life...........
I support gas pockets in MC (see thread in Suggestions)!
Thanks.
Oh, and the items will likely cost alot of paper.
Thanks 4 support/
they are too big
Hey everyone, I'm back!
I'd definitely support this.
